well ive bought a couple intakes they all come with this piece what is it for? i never have used it.. so why do they give it to me its like a small rubber piece with threads on both sides
for what? where does it go
with threads, most likely metric threads
hm do u use this piece or not i just asked a simple question i see no place where u can use it?? what is it for
it's so you can bolt up the intake to whatever hole you have nearby... the rubber is like a shock absorber I guess, it allows the intake tube to flex a little while still holding it in place. It's kinda hard to get it to fit perfect, but that's what it's for. I'm assuming your intake came with some kind of rod to attach to the intake so you can support it somewhere? That rubber thing goes at the end of the rod to attach to the car. Unless I'm just completely thinking the wrong way here, that's what it's for.
You got a rubber bushing, for Placement where needed. HOWEVER, you may not need it. Many Ebay intakes and some otherwise professional ones come with extra pieces, to make an intake fit in just about any car that uses the same relitive shape, So R&D doesnt have to design an intake for each and every engine and car combination.
Does that help you any?

hm i dont get it only thing it comes with is a support to bolt on the power steering pump i have 2.4 by the way.. anyway i just losen the power steering bolt n put the rod on there n tighten the bolt it always holds good for me im not even sure where the threads would screw to ive sold alot of intakes to friends ect they come with them ive just always been confused on what its for i usualyl just toss them
Its just there if your specific intake is universal on other cars. Example, i have a 2000 2200 2.2L. like duh! And its intake from injen and AEM are also used on about a dozen other cars or various makes and models.

cavaliers aren't the only cars that use the 2.4 engine...
GO PATS!!!
The actual engine has little to do if its universal or not. The 2200 engine Injen intake is the same for some honda's, just reversed, And it even works on KA247 1.8L DOHC engines.
Though i dont use injen intake anymore, i use a modular one, Basicly it still hold true.
Just about any intake for any Engine, can be used just as well on a similiar intake tract of a different car and different engine.
I cant explain that any clearer.

all u have to say the piece isnt for my car
i dont think it matters wut cars have 2.4L the engine bay is gonna be the same so is the pwer steering pump thats suppose to bolt to the intake
you dont need it. just attach the bracket on the intake tube to the power steering bolt and youre done.

The piece isn't for your @!#$ car.
TRy posting it up in the B15(00+ Sentra) sites. They use that same one, I got on on my Spec. I've seen a few threads where those bushing went out and ppl were try to buy one.

Photos of the Intake? My AEM didnt include that, just the hardware necessary to install it, speaking of which, is there an easier way to install that darned Breather hose?
Its used for mounting the AEM ecotec cold air intake to the side of the bay. Now as you have a 2.4 im guessing they toss it in the box becasue it says cavalier on it and happened to be on the packing list just in case?
. Wait, bad joke.
